    Dear Biomch-L readers,

    Next week (12 - 16 August, 1990), the International Society of Electrophysio-
    logical Kinesiology (ISEK) will have its 8th Congress at the Sheraton Inner Har-
    bour Hotel in Baltimore, MD, USA; cf. also the note on ISEK at the bottom of
    this email posting. Just having received the final conference program, I wish
    to say that it looks most interesting, with the following parallel sessions,
